Default Animating gas cloud using ISO surface

Hi,

I've set up a transient case with a time-dependent release of toxic gas. Further I want to animate the resulting cloud as it is carried with the wind using the surface of 1000 ppm gas concentration.

The case runs smoothly, put I have trouble automating a png dump of the view port (which also merely keeps showing the initial cloud during the simulation), and with updating the iso surface with each time step.

Can anyone please tell me how they have solved something like this?

I would prefer to get the actual three dimensional cloud showing in the final video, not just the iso-contours on the surfaces.

Thanks in advance,
Tarjei
